PA Primary News
28 year old Luke Rahvenstahl, mayor of Pittsburgh, PA, endorsed Hillary today at a rally in Pittsburgh;
not to mention Gov. Ed Rendell, County Commissioner, Dan Onorato, and the mayor of Philly.

By the way, Obama is nowhere to be seen or heard. (crickets. . crickets) Strange. Obama even canceled a rally a couple days ago???

Anyway, Hillary, Bill and their daughter are criss-crossing the state, talking about real issues, the economy, health-care, gas prices, environment, issues that voters really are concerned about. Everyone is excited here!!! It's really refreshing to see Hillary's campaign focused on taking the message to the streets; without the disruption of non-issues coming from the Obama camp.

PS: Hillary will be in the St. Patrick's Day Parade Saturday in Pittsburgh, a large turnout expected, of course.



GO HILLARY!
WE LOVE YOU IN PA

Obama leads in pledged delegates and will win Indiana, North Carolina and Oregon by enough to cover his losses in Penn.

5. I'd start looking at polls
Edited on Sat Mar-15-08 04:10 AM by CatnHat
after this weekend. I wouldn't start counting your "chickens".

When Hillary wins BIG in PA, those super delegates are going to do 180's back to Hillary, watch and see!; and with FL and MI on the horizon, her delegates will be seated properly. Then come back and tell us all about why Obama lost the nomination.



See Ya!!!

31. Just like how she was supposed to tear it up after winning big in Ohio...
After all, she made huge inroads in Wyoming and Mississippi.

Oh wait...nevermind.

28. He is the youngest mayor
of a major city in the country. He appeared on Dave Letterman a few months back; and already somewhat of an icon. We love Luke! and so happy he is endorsing Hillary!

8. after super tuesday
Edited on Sat Mar-15-08 04:13 AM by johnnydrama
The Clinton's put all their eggs in one basket, Ohio & Texas. How'd that work out for them? They're further back in delegates and popular vote then they ever have been.

They think they can fool people into believing PA is the only state of the next few states that matter.

They are wrong.

Scranton HQ: 570-330-0741

Then in Pittsburgh later.

She's working the state and not quitting.

15. Obama cancelled because of Senate vote - He'll be in PA Monday
Edited on Sat Mar-15-08 06:31 AM by RamboLiberal
I wish he was here more, but hopefully he'll be here a lot in the next few weeks.

Obama's coming to rescheduled visit Monday in Beaver County, then to Reading, PA.

I understand Michelle's been out in Philly area.

30. This morning's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette was covered with two stories on Clinton, a big picture
in color and the main headline. Two local TV stations had her speech live last night. No sign of Obama. There was a small story about his campaign office in Pittsburgh yesterday. I doubt Obama will get this kind of coverage.

will take the Philadelphia area (where most of the votes are) and will ultimately give Hillary a real run for her money in the whole state. It's weeks away remember.

36. With Phillys mayor
behind Clinton, the race for Philly is not a given for Obama (far from it). The democratic machine is alive and well organized in PA. The super-delegates are lining up for Hillary.
